And Good Night.

Totally.
It’s the venality of the system that needs changing.
The current state of politics is just a symptom of the decay that corporate influence has fuelled.
It’s why I’ve switched to @greenparty.org.uk where at least there’s an element of hope.

Unless you get permission from the landlord, of course.
Which, in this case, would be, er… oh yeah, the American people.

Cannot adequately express what a total let-down and utter disappointment Starmer has been as PM.
Lacks the cojones to do anything worthwhile with his majority and simply affirms everyday that he’s only there because his government’s predecessors were such venal imbeciles and rank incompetents.

Except there are a lot fewer paid-up members than there were.
I ripped up my own membership card six months ago.

You probably need to be at the gasoline end to appreciate this.
If you’re not there yet, you will be.

Trump’s tariffs are a big mistake but if this means Americans making less of what they call ‘coffee’, it can only be a good thing for the world.

Mmm… I’m no lawyer, but I think if you do this as a ‘tenant’, you’re obliged - at your own expense - to restore the property to its original state on vacating the premises.
Which can’t come soon enough.

I support almost everything you do, but I really think Parliament has more important things to think about.
If he’s broken the law, then prosecute him.
If not, his loss of entitlement (in both senses) will be purgatory for him.
But there’s enough serious shit going on without this irrelevance.

We all know that’s because their shit water tastes like coffee.

The whole story gives some perspective - not to mention a hint of truth - to the rumour that Harry once punched Andrew’s lights out at a family bash.

As Trump’s grip on power tightens, as he becomes more ‘untouchable’, he becomes increasingly bold vis à vis Russia and the kompromat Putin has on him.
He’ll deny everything, the GOP will back him, and MAGA will believe him.
Again.
Not good news for Putin.
Or the rest of the world for that matter.

It’s completely bonkers.
Thames Water territory.
You’d think they be grateful if their output tasted more like coffee than shit.

Oh dear, what a pity, never mind.

A powerful, mainstream media - the Fourth Estate - scared of a bloviating, orange, narcissistic, paedophile rapist, whose only interest in the country he professes to love is based on how much more wealthy it can make him and how low its people can bow to him.
Come on America, sort your shit out.

I thought ‘wiping out Hamas’ was what Netanyahu and the IDF had been doing for the past two years.
Oh, sorry, that was wiping out tens of thousands of innocent civilians and children.
Otherwise known as genocide.

Think you’re being over-generous with regard to his wit.

Fuck me, can anyone explain how ANY or ALL criticism of shit stuff perpetrated by Israeli citizens - whether it’s horrific and racist football hooliganism or fucking genocidal war crimes - is now defined as anti-semitism?

At least it’s a going to be a gold-plated ballroom where - because the White House belongs to them - ordinary, honest, tax-paying Americans will be able to dance the night away with their beloved president.

Yeah, that image is not a metaphor for anything that might’ve been happening in DC since January.
